How do I change my iCloud password after failing email AND security question?

I am trying to use an iCloud account I set up months ago. I cannot remember my password and when I select email, I don't receive anything on any of my other email accounts.
Is there another option?

HT4865 How do I change my icloud password

I wanna know how can I change my icloud password ?

1. Before doing anything, turn off 'Find my iPhone/iPad/Mac' on any devices it's enabled on.
2. Sign out of iCloud on all your devices. On a Mac, System Preferences>iCloud and click 'Sign out'. On an iOS device, Settings>iCloud and click 'Delete account' (this will not delete the account from the server). Your iCloud-synced data will disappear from your device. If offered the opportunity to save it on your Mac, don't.
3. Go to http://appleid.apple.com, sign in and click 'Password & Security' in the sidebar. Answer the security questions, if set, and then click 'Edit' next to the password field. Save.
4. Sign back in on all your devices. Your data will re-appear (give it time). You can now re-enable 'Find My...'.
5. I reiterate, before your start, turn off 'Find My...' or you will probably need the services of Support.

How do I change my iCloud password WITHOUT changig my apple id password

Your iCloud login is an Apple ID. You can change the password at http//appleid.apple.com by logging in with the same ID and clicking 'Password and Security' in the sidebar.
This will change the password for anywhere else you log in with the same ID, such as here or in iTunes. If you log into either with a different ID the password will not change there, but you can't separate the passwords for any places which have the same login as iCloud.

HT5312 i forget my apple rescue email and security question.how i can change my password

i forget my apple rescue email and security question.how i can rest my password

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
Unfortunately at this moment you can't. Apple emplyee(s) inadvertantly assisted someone to hack the Apple ID accounts of others and Apple has placed a moritorium on resetting accounts until Apple has security in place to prevent this occurring again.
Write iTunes/Mac App Store Support and perhaps they can tell you when to axpect help to reset your account.

Hello, my friend's ipad locked and need the apple id and password to unlock the setup and open the ipad but he don't remember any one of them nor his email and security questions what can we do about that please solution?

hello, my friend's i pad locked and need the apple id and password to unlock the setup and open the i pad but he don't remember any one of them nor his email and security questions the serial number of tha i pad is DYT*******PH and the part number is MC979ZP/A what can we do about that please solution?
<Edited by Host>

Your friend will have to remember or find his account id and password, without them he won't be able to re-activate the iPad.
Does he have any of the account's downloads in his computer's iTunes library : Recovering a forgotten iTunes Store account name.
Or has he tried finding it via http://appleid.apple.com : Apple ID: How to find your Apple ID.
If he can find the account id he can then get its password reset via http://iforgot.apple.com
(As these are user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple, I've asked the hosts to remove the serial number from your post.)
